Nanshan Bayuan: What is it like to stay in a cave dwelling in Yan'an?

Nanshan Bayuan Homestay is located behind the former site of the Northwest Bureau. Due to historical changes, the house has been vacant for a long time. Therefore, during the renovation process, Yanlv Group tried its best to retain the characteristics of the cave dwellings in northern Shaanxi, which are warm in winter and cool in summer. The interior design combines red culture and northern Shaanxi culture. On the one hand, the characteristics of old-style cave dwellings are preserved; on the other hand, the red revolutionary spirit of the Yan'an period is emphasized. The courtyard retains its original layout, with a family courtyard style, with a total of 8 large courtyards. The courtyard with bluestone bricks and tiles has a date tree with a long history, and there is also a small private plot where you can grow some fruits and vegetables, completely retaining the simple layout of the courtyard in northern Shaanxi. After the renovation, the house has been re-floored, the kang has been covered with more comfortable bedding, and the modern design makes it more convenient and comfortable to live in. The arched window design makes the light more sufficient, and the bedding is full of sunshine, which is particularly warm. Shaanxi culture is also introduced indoors to strengthen the cultural characteristics of the homestay. For example, a paper-cutting based on Shaanxi stories or animal patterns is hung on the wall, which not only reflects the cultural characteristics of the homestay but also enlivens the space atmosphere. Nanshan Bayuan is different from other homestays. It not only meets the comfort of customers in use but also has the local characteristics and culture of Yan'an. In terms of furniture, bed styles, and decorations, people have the feeling of "this is the 'cave dwelling in northern Shaanxi.'" Nanshan Bayuan makes full use of the natural orientation of the courtyard, so that the guest rooms have good sunlight and landscape views. Externally, it is in harmony with the mountain environment, and internally, it forms a comfortable courtyard space. Staying in a homestay is an experience of stories and humanities. Homestays are an important carrier to show the regional spirit and can understand the local lifestyle, natural conditions, and human environment. Nanshan Bayuan is such a place. It is simple, real, and has a superior geographical location. It is the best place for you to understand the regional culture of northern Shaanxi and the historical culture of Yan'an.
